LOOK WHO IS AT THE BOTTOM YYYEEEAAAHHHH!!!!!!!!Thats whats wrong with my state. Maybe we'll vote for a democrat now wooo hoooo

Man I love Daily Kos

Maybe you will get a Democratic Governor. Of course, the evil criminal Ken Blackwell is running the election. So, don't be surprised if black people have to wait 11 hours to vote and the tally looks nothing like the exit polls.

My state of Illinois had Republican governors for decades. It took unbelievable rampant corruption by the Republicans to finally turn our state solid blue. Even though Gov. Rod Blagojevich only has a 44% approval, he is a shoe in to beat the pathetic Republican candidate, Judy Baar-Topinka. She asked Bush to just give her money, without campaigning for her. But, monkey boy showed up at her fund raiser anyway. If she ever had a chance, she is sunk now.

Mine was at 52%, which is pretty good for a democratic governor in a Red state. NC gave its teachers an almost 9% pay raise for the new school year. Easely has always been on the side of education and rumor has it that he may make a run for higher office in 2008.

A political fund-raiser keynoted Friday by President George W. Bush generated $1.2 million for the campaign coffers of Republican gubernatorial candidate Judy Baar Topinka, who downplayed the possibility that she may alienate some voters in Democrat-trending Illinois by appearing with the GOP leader.

And even though Judy Baar-Topinka made it clear she did not want the chimpanzee-in-chief showing up at her fund raiser, he had to lie about it afterwords.

Quote:

Earlier Friday, Bush brushed aside a widely reported comment made weeks ago by an unnamed Topinka campaign aide, who said the candidate would like to get presidential fund-raising help while keeping her distance from him. The aide said the Topinka camp would like the fund raising to occur quietly, "late at night," syndicated columnist George Will wrote.

"I was invited. I gladly came," Bush said during a news conference at the Museum of Science and Industry, where he fielded questions from the local and national media.
